I was initially disappointed in my 1L year, in that there were no gunners in section 1. I thought I was missing out on one of the essential law school experiences. I now see the error of my ways. Roughly 7 milliseconds after the both of you opened your mouths in class today, I had an almost irrepressible urge to hurl myself out the window behind me and take my chances with the concrete library walkway below me. Should I lose that gamble, at the least the intense and grating pain cause by the sound of your voice would end.

So, as a cautionary note for the future, I would advise you to be careful and judicious. Everyone around the both of you wished nothing but death and destruction to rain down upon you. Further, everyone in the class is equipped with a book that is the approximate equal weight of a half-loaded cement truck. Any more repeat performances like today could indeed cause a hellacious rain of overpriced and supremely heavy textbooks to fall upon you.

Sincerely,

Kal V. Ano, Esq.

Have you considered actual guns? I believe Texas law permits you to defend yourself with deadly force against such offenses against nature, so long as they occur on a college campus...

I guess they either: (a) sent rejections via snail mail and we haven't gotten them, or (b) they like us, but not enough to give us a call-back right away, and are waiting to see what responses they get to their call-backs before either rejecting us or offering us a call-back

Silence is worse than rejection. But if they've sent letters, we should have gotten them. Dallas to Dallas is a day. Anyway, didn't Looper do email rejects?

This. My career service lady told me "no news is no news." I don't think you can read into it one way or another. I think if you haven't gotten anything from a firm then they are working their way through their primary choices and keeping you in their pocket just in case they don't get their first picks. I've heard of people getting call backs close to a month after their screening interview and I've heard of dings via snail mail postmarked the day of the screening interview. It's just a mother f-ing crap shoot.
